Should I keep it near 100% charged, or is a lower amount better? If less, why? Sent from my iPhone using Inside EVs
Generally recommended to limit max charge to 80% if that covers your needs, charging to 90% or 100% only when necessary. Also I believe advice is to try to keep it above ~30%. All rechargable batteries can physically and chemically wear out with repeated cycles, resulting in capacity loss. The majority of the wear and tear happens a the extreme ends; fully charged and fully discharged. By keeping away from the extremes, you minimize the wear and prolong battery life.
